I agree, Aladin, and the two Earthworm Jim games where easily some of my best platforming moments in the 90s. The hand drawn animations where truly something new in those days and you really sensed some progress in an already old genre. With that said, this remind me of another guilty Dave Perry pleasure, Cool Spot.
He had a hard time with Shiny at the end, but seing some of these old classic reminds you why he was seen as one of the pioneers of gaming, being mainstream.

You guys all bring up some fair points, but I still think you all are stuck in nostalgia mode when it comes to talking about nintendo of the past. And yes Jamie, the gaming demographic has changed, but humans have not stopped creating children, and many of those children`s parents are the 25-35 demographic you speak of. And no, your opinion does not hurt me Jamie, it is sad that you imagine fellow communtie members, hurting though.
Nintendo has always aimed everyone as thei...
tell that to the 6 year old that bought Sonic Rush yesterday.
really now? Every console that is popular falls victim to shovelware.
Here is just a few examples of the PS2 pushing the envelope of game design.
Action Girlz Racing
Airborne Troops: Countdown to D-Day
Alarm for Cobra 11: Hot Pursuit
The Bible Game
Bratz: Forever Diamondz
Bratz: Rock Angelz
Clever Kids-Dino Land
Clever Kids-Pony World

Tell me Jamie, what was so different from Nintendo of the 80s and 90s from Nintendo of now? Seriously, I would like for you to clear up such a vague statement. I just think you guys don't want to admit that Nintendo has just stuck to their game plan, since day one, nothing has changed. And they have made bad calls, like all the other current gen console makers.
But many of you have to give up this idea that Nintendo was so amazing in the 80s and 90s, because the reality i...
lol, see, I already sense progress.
it is not wrong at all mrv312, you are just reflecting your true inner feelings once again.
lol
what can I say dude, we need more posters like you on here. :)
My favorite Nintendo commercial of all time, right here...

yep, this is looking like a shooter alright. Nice old school shooter.

It's cool to hate on anything popular here on N4G and GTA4 is a shinning example of just that. I think It's all the teenage angst we got floating on N4G.

GTA4 was a throwback to GTA3, one of the best games this gen, and I am quite interested in GTA5 and agent of course.

Who cares what he says, or does not say. We all know that the 360 had a horrible hardware issue and lets just hope they learned by their bad bad. I would hope any company in our belov...
quick question, you label people by how they look?
And, just for the heck of it.
"back-stabbing, idea stealing and over-enthusiasm"
Yep, that pretty much sums up EVERY major corporation. They will all back stab, they will all steal ideas, and they will always have over-enthusiasm for their new products.
So, you just created, yet another account to troll? You must be proud.
I have it, and I respectfully disagree. The load times are retarded, played it once since I got is and have not touched it since because of the load times. I was switching to blur on my Xbox in between loads.
Sorry Sevir04 but when you spend 15-20 minutes out of a 2 hours play session on loading screens, it is bad.
With that said, love the game though, but they need to fix this, until then, Blur it is for me.
unbelievable, trolled once again. Just report him and put him on ignore. You guys really need to stop feeding the trolls. You give him attention, he wins. No matter how you see it.
lolumad?
I would suggest you take your own advice and stop reading people who are complaining on how tired they of hearing about jaffe. And Jaffe does not need you to defend him, glad you think he does though, its cute.
the wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round,the wheels on the bus go round and round, all, the way, to town.
Conloles is a multiple account troll that lives to troll console gamers, but I have to say, he nailed it right on the button there.
